Chapter 36 Punishment

Su Siman stopped and looked at the long body of Liang Shaojun in front of her, which seemed to be thicker than before. It was not as thin as before, and she walked steadily and lightly. She felt a little strange.

"What's the matter? You walk so slowly." Liang Shaojun noticed that she had fallen behind again, so he stopped and turned to look at her.

"Nothing." Su Siman smiled, hid the melancholy, and also accelerated his pace.

Zi Mingju was very quiet, and there were no slaves shuttled back and forth. One or two of them were like frost eggplants, wither in a daze and there was no voice.

Su Siman remembers that Xu Jiao raised a puppy and stayed in the bedroom last night. At this time, he didn't see it outside the hall. I'm afraid he was still guarding in the bedroom. When I went in, I found that the little black dog was squatting in front of the bed, still maintaining the posture of last night, as if it had not moved. I don't know if the maid of honor has fed it. It looks very sad, and its original slippery hair is also a little dull. Seeing Su Siman and Liang Shaojun coming in, they did not bark, but let out a howling-like sob.

The doors and windows in the bedroom are closed, burning candles, and they are drowsy.

When Liang Shaojun walked to the crystal bead curtain, he stopped, looked at the situation from afar, and left with his back.

"You should report it to your mother first. Such an unknown matter should be dealt with as soon as possible."

In fact, her idea is very simple. She just thinks that Xu Jiao can even ignore her life in order to give birth to his child. She thinks that he should come to see her before the rest of the palace. Xu Jiao couldn't say goodbye to him before she died. At least after her death, he must see her. No matter how many grudges he had before her death, he should let those ethereal things dissipate. Su Siman thought that if he couldn't come to see her, she would not smile. Women, how can they be trapped all their lives?

Somehow, Su Siman felt a faint sadness in his words. Although it was so faint that it was almost elusive, it was still noticed by her. After all, he is no longer the person he used to be. He is no longer as cold-blooded as before. In fact, his previous reaction was somewhat cold to her heart. She felt that he seemed to have not changed at all and was still so cold and ruthless. Now, she understands again that he was just used to hiding emotions, and she had not noticed it before, because since the two were together again, he has been in some ways. Some changes have taken place, and she is no longer a person of joy and anger, which makes her ignore his extremely tolerant personality.

Su Siman did not leave immediately. She stayed in the lifeless bedroom for a while and opened the window. She didn't know what she thought, although she clearly knew that Xu Jiao could no longer feel the warmth of the sun, the freshness of the autumn wind, and the fragrance of osmanthus outside the window.

When she arrived at Jiaheng Hall, the queen's face was gloomy, and Su Siman guessed that she might have heard something.

Sure enough, I greeted him according to the rules. Before I could speak, I heard the Queen's hard voice and asked, "I heard that something happened to Zi Mingju?"

Su Siman Weiwei: "Yes, I have heard about it since I came to my mother."

The queen said sneer, "Such a big thing happened in the East Palace, but you can calm down and come forward now."

"It's my son's dereliction of duty, and I hope my mother will be punished later." Su Siman knelt straight and his thin shoulders were stretched.

The queen suddenly asked harshly: "Of course, I will investigate. I heard that Xu Baolin ate something harmful to you in the morning and had an attack in the afternoon, didn't he?

Su Siman kowtowed to the ground and dared not speak. His forehead touched the rough carpet and poked it cold. Although I also expected that the queen might react, I didn't expect that it would change color and be so excited. Su Siman really didn't know what kind of muscle the queen was. Usually, she didn't see how blue-eyed the queen was to Xu Jiao. Now, I'm afraid it's something else.

She knelt, motionless, looking like she was waiting for her hair to fall.

The queen raised her sleeves and swept away, and the remaining half of the tea cups fell to the ground. The water splashed everywhere and scolded angrily, "I thought you had experienced so much. It's time to governor, but I didn't know that you were still so confused! If such a thing happens, what will the people of the Xu family think of the prince? What will the world think of the prince? Are you going to push him to the situation of being unkind and unrighteous? This time, this palace will definitely punish you heavily, which is also a lesson and a reminder for you. In the harem, you must be careful and not take a wrong step to avoid giving people a handle. You must be responsible for what you have done wrong.

"I understand that my mother will be severely punished, and I will never complain." Su Siman knocked his head.

When she looked up, the queen saw her clear expression.

Su Siman suddenly realized that this was what the queen was angry about, and she didn't know how to feel for a moment. Although she felt that the people in the palace were cold and weak, on the other hand, she was like being slapped in the head. She thought of something that she had not thought about before - Zhao Guifei's mind was really meticulous and vicious. With the death of Xu Baolin, she could find out such a big wave, which could not only provoke the relationship between the prince and his subordinates, but also hit herself quietly. Forced the queen to come forward to punish herself, which further aggravated the tense relationship between the queen and the prince. At the beginning, it was the queen's idea to recruit Xu Jiao into the palace, which was also her to handle it, that is, to win over the Xu family. Xu's lineage is also a famous family in Beijing, which is quite influential. Now the Xu family's daughter dies horizontally and is extremely disgly, especially her death has such an unclear relationship with the crown princess, which is inevitable that it is not embarrassing. My heart is born with him.

Thinking like this, Su Siman felt more and more that Zhao Guifei was vicious. She didn't even have to come forward at all, so she pretended to use her own hands to provoke many contradictions.

Su Siman knows very well that she, the crown princess, still doesn't have the weight to make Zhao Guifei regard herself as an opponent. Naturally, what Zhao Guifei wants to deal with is not herself. She is not only throwing stones to ask for the way, but also knocking on the mountain to shock the tiger. It is really smart. The enemy hidden behind the dark castle is the most difficult to deal with, because it is hidden deep, and there are few exposed horse feet and limited clues that can be caught. However, there is a person who is expected to find clues from her.

Although Su Siman was once quite suspicious of Baoqin and Xiang'er, he could not doubt Zhao Guifei. He always thought it was an eye nail sent by the queen. Moreover, the focus of the suspicion fell on Xianger, who once punished her to Shen Xingsi, and Baoqin has always been honest and silent, but she did not think that she was a spy. Now instead of except her, we have to keep it well. At this time, if you remove the treasure piano, it is tantamount to frightening the snake. Although it can come out of a breath of evil in your heart, it is harmful to the overall situation.

The queen's method was indeed clean and sharp. While Su Siman was still training in Jiaheng Hall, the matter of Zi Mingju had been quietly dealt with by her.

Last night, all the maids and eunuchs on duty in Xu Baolin's bedroom in Zimingju, as well as the doctor, were all ordered by the queen to be executed, even the puppy. Xu Baolin's injury and death were wiped clean, and everyone said that she died due to dystocia. The face of the minister and the royal family were preserved. Xu Baolin made an exception to the queen's "love" and was able to preserve his attire and be buried in the imperial mausoleum after his death.

The crown princess was severely punished, but it was not made public.

The palace has not changed because of the death of a person. Everything seems to be the same as usual, and the wind and waves are as calm as ever.

Xu Baolin's son was crowned and raised by the crown princess.
